We're joined with Dr Bernd Porr from the Engineering school of Glasgow University to discuss how and why he has introduced open source to his students in Biomedical Engineering. We talk about the importance of teaching open source, especially those in non computer science studies, as well as what would encourage universities to embrace open source more. Our conversations also delve into how open source has benefited the neuroscience community with The Human Brain Project and Dr Porr's own contributions of the mapping of the limbic system – plus I learn a few things about the reward system in Rats. Lastly talk about the University's support of open source by other departments, what advice he would give to contributors and Dr Porr's (many amazing) personal projects.
